LONG BEACH 6R0UP
San Francisco During The Romantic Days Of The Past Is Topic.
“San Francisco” was the subject of a talk by Dr. Owen C. Coy, professor of California history, at S. C., given before the discussion group of the Long Beach library Tuesday evening.
This is the second time Doctor Coy has addressed this group in a series of meetings held by the library to study California history and to familiarize the patrons with books on the historical background of the state. The subject of his speech on March 25 was “The Search for Gold on the Overland Trail.”
During the courso of his talk on “San Francisco,” Dr. Coy verbally drew a picture of the city in the old Spanish days, telling of the old Presidio mission and of the village of Yerba Buena, which later became San Francisco. San Francisco was founded under the Mexican regime but was laid out by Americans, so that the city is really of American origin. Doctor Coy also told of the colorful day of San Francisco during the gold rush days, and during the days of the vigilantes, ending with tbe hectic days of the earthquake Newspapers printed at the time of the earthquake were an interesting accompaniment to his ad dress.
Doctor Coy is an authority on California history and is director of the California State Historical association, having spent much time in research and study of the state's romantic past.

LONG BEACH 6R0UP
San Francisco During The Romantic Days Of The Past Is Topic.
“San Francisco” was the subject of a talk by Dr. Owen C. Coy, professor of California history, at S. C., given before the discussion group of the Long Beach library Tuesday evening.
This is the second time Doctor Coy has addressed this group in a series of meetings held by the library to study California history and to familiarize the patrons with books on the historical background of the state. The subject of his speech on March 25 was “The Search for Gold on the Overland Trail.”
During the courso of his talk on “San Francisco,” Dr. Coy verbally drew a picture of the city in the old Spanish days, telling of the old Presidio mission and of the village of Yerba Buena, which later became San Francisco. San Francisco was founded under the Mexican regime but was laid out by Americans, so that the city is really of American origin. Doctor Coy also told of the colorful day of San Francisco during the gold rush days, and during the days of the vigilantes, ending with tbe hectic days of the earthquake Newspapers printed at the time of the earthquake were an interesting accompaniment to his ad dress.
Doctor Coy is an authority on California history and is director of the California State Historical association, having spent much time in research and study of the state's romantic past.
